WWE signed Steveson to a multi-year contract in early September. The unique NCAA NIL (name, image, likeness) deal would allow Steveson to join the WWE roster while also defending his NCAA title for the University of Minnesota.

It was also reported that WWE will set up a remote training facility for Steveson near the UoM campus, where he will learn the finer points of in-ring work from WWE coaches. Steveson will also have access to the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, where his brother Bobby Steveson is currently training.
